The flights are still in excellent condition after 5 months of use. I throw around 15 hours per week. The flights have some wear. I robin hooded two flights since purchase. One was fine for use and the other had a tear. In the same time frame with standard flights and stems I would have robin hooded at least 10 times and the flights and stems would have been rendered useless. These flights with the carbon stems will last a very long time. Great value.
